As it was a private hire it was by invitation only , and it appears non were invited, I’m sure they’ll get plenty of track time on their own. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't he wanting a GB spot last season? Could be a possible signing. It's possible he improved racing in Sweden, but he struggled to average 4 when last over here with Scunthorpe, looks a weak signing with 6+ available imo Edited February 25 by szkocjasid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoff100 Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 What average would anders rowe come in on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neila Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 His average would probably fit, around 5.5 I think , but I thought I'd read somewhere that he was only doing kings Lynn and Poland, to me it's another British youngster that's hanging on to try and make it in Poland rather than put the miles and effort doing 2 leagues in the UK. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a decent season in Poland last year.Can travel to Poland by air quicker than getting Worky by road I would imagine.

Noelinho Posted February 25 Report Share Posted February 25 Andrew Rowe would be 5.80, all in. The best option if they're not signing Claus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cud be if your not scoring well at Kings Lynn and Poland your confidence is down, then you don't have the easier ? league to gain confidence again, we all know Poland will drop you like a ton of bricks if you don't perform 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomber75 Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 Surprised to see Celina in the Peter Craven Memorial at Belle Vue, that could be a baptism of fire for the start of her British league career 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From watching videos and seeing her at worky she likes big fast tracks, had similar times at both Redcar and worky to the main meetings, this on borrowed bikes, also good PR for belle Vue, Cellina snd speedway in general. Let's enjoy the journey UTC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe she will, but it's extra time on the bike, so, therefore, helping with set-up and everything that goes with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no doubt its for publicity but the majority of the up and coming Brits would struggle to score points in the field that's been assembled so far. And a good few of those are hitting above a 4 point assessed average in the Championship. Someone's got to come last, if it helps get more exposure, then great! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
